Switching a dynamic domain manager for a Z controller

As a normal behavior, the dynamic domain manager for a Z controller works by having both the server and processes up and running, while the backup dynamic domain manager for a Z controller works with the processes that are running and the system that is down. You might have to switch the dynamic domain manager for a Z controller to a backup workstation because, for example, the system running the current workstation goes down.

To switch the dynamic domain manager for a Z controller to the backup workstation, perform the following procedure:
  1. Stop the server on the dynamic domain manager for a Z controller by issuing the following command:
    On Windows
    stopAppServer.bat
    On UNIX
    stopAppServer.sh
  2. On the backup dynamic domain manager for a Z controller, run the following command:
    On Windows
    startZosDDM.bat -dbUsr db_user -dbPwd db_user_pwd
    On UNIX
    startZosDDM.sh -dbUsr db_user -dbPwd db_user_pwd
    where:
    dbUsr db_user
    The user that has been granted access to the HCL Workload Automation for Z tables on the database server.
    dbPwd db_user_pwd
    The password for the user that has been granted access to the HCL Workload Automation for Z tables on the database server.
  3. On the backup dynamic domain manager for a Z controller, start the server by running the following command:
    On Windows
    startAppServer.bat
    On UNIX
    startAppServer.sh
